19.5" wheels and tires can support up to 5000# each. On my E350, it was easier and cheaper than going DRW.

Honestly I couldn't see ford going to the trouble of making 2 different frames. The dually rear ends in most applications just have longer studs and/or the axle tubes are a little bit longer. The frames are the same I measured them today just to back up what I am saying.

They do make more than one frame my 2000 f250 is 37" wide and curved
my 2000 F350 cab and chassis is flat framed and is only 34" wide

But that is what I have is a single wheel cab and chassis

NO SRW trucks left the factory without a bed. They were built as a pickup, delivered, bed removed then a utility, flat, or some other custom bed was installed. A true cab-n-chassis has a flat frame and is 34" wide. AN industry standard
